George earned his B.A. in Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, and Math from Rutgers University in 2012. He earned his PhD at UC Berkeley, with Professor Donald Rio, focusing on the structural mechanism of Drosophila P element transposition. In 2020, George joined Dr. Kelly Nguyen at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in the UK, where he applied cryo-EM to study human telomerase and shelterin complexes. His postdoctoral research provided significant insights into the molecular mechanisms of telomere maintenance, earning him the Jane Coffin Childs Fellowship in 2021 and the MRC-LMB Joan A. Steitz Postdoc Prize in 2022. In January 2025, George will begin his independent career at Princeton University's Department of Molecular Biology.
